Not Just a Mission for Army Aviation,
It is a Combined Arms/Joint Force
Mission
AwMBolL as part Ql tfie combined Arms
Pantzyr S-l SP AD
^ System
Execute the enduring missions in support of Commander's scheme
of maneuver in Joint and Combined arms environment
Specifically:
* Provide agility, lethality and responsiveness throughout depth of battlespace
* Provide direct fires and maneuver unconstrained by terrain through mutual support
of ground forces
* Create Overmatch with reinforcing combat power through fires and maneuver
* Force enemy into multi-dimensional fight
* Orchestrate direct and indirect fires to force enemy from position of strength
* Shape and isolate decisive operations
* Deny enemy freedom of movement
* Provide cognitive man-in-the-loop C2 to acquire, fix and destroy targets
* Target acquisition and precision fires at extended ranges
* Vertical dimension of Combined Arms Team
This is Why We Have Army Aviation.^
